LEGO Announces 10225 R2-D2

"Doo doo doo doo doo!" "What's that Artoo? LEGO has created a UCS-scale version of you?" You read that right. LEGO has announced a new set based on everyone's favorite astromech. Announced earlier this week, we have the pictures and press release for you right here. Just read on for all the details!

How long has it been since Lego has included sculptural techniques on a set? The last I remember was those Darth Maul and Yoda sculptures from a loong time ago. I am definitely getting this. I mean, for once, R2-D2 has tools and a retractable third leg! And it's not one of those hollow-headed Technic models like before. Lego has really outdone all the previous Lego R2-D2 incarnations so far. Of course, ten years from now, I'll probably see a new Artoo and think I wasted money here

This reminds me of the old R2D2 Technic sets, but this one is much better (and also much more expensive). The retractable elements are great. Good job as usual, LEGO! You just can´t stop surpassing yourself. ~Gata.

Okay, I've never been much of one for Lego Star Wars, or Star Wars in general, but that fella is pretty cool. I just wish there was some kind of size comparison image, so I can figure out how tall it is.

There is a pic with the included minifig.

I was more hoping for a straight-forward side-by-side size comparison shot. From an angle, it's a little harder to tell.

Oh Andrew, Andrew, Andrew, I love you. Thank you for that.BTW sorry about eating all your PEZ (<--not actually sorry). Well actually my girlfrann ate more of it than I did. Details. Good times.Let's you and I get this set over Memorial Day (you're gonna have another party, right??) and build it together!

His head is a little too blocky,but maybe some dome pieces would correct it?The previous Artoo had too many gaps in him,which he looked more like an Artoo that broke down 200 years ago than Artoo. This is one of those few SW sets that catches my eye.-CDP

Coming June 22nd: Your chance to become an ECC critic! Power of the pen in your hands!

I think he´s rather referring to the fact that his head is grey and not white like the rest of the body. This had me pretty confused for a while concerning the minifig before I realized Artoo´s head is really silver and not white, so making it grey definitely makes sense.~Gata.

This set oozes with awesome. It could only be better if it included a button that played R2-D2's classic beeps and boops.The piece-to-price ratio of this set is actually pretty good, Chaos Dralcax. It's certainly better than most of the sets in Lego's other lines.

"By me... Count Bleck! The chosen executor of the Dark Prognosticus... is Count Bleck! The fine fellow prophesied to come to this dimension... is also Count Bleck!"

Ah, I used to have that set. I still find pieces of it every now and then.. Good times.
